September 10, 6 – 8 pm – Rhonda Ackley’s clay art
The first Art at St Martin’s will feature the work of Keller artisan potter Rhonda Ackley of Ackley’s Artifacts (instagram.com/ackley_artifacts). Rhonda is an award-winning clay artist, and many members of St. Martin’s regularly enjoy some of her work – she made clay cups and plates used for Holy Communion. Rhonda’s art is exceptionally varied, from ornate to utilitarian, from pure art to vessels, from molded to cut. Rhonda shares that “pottery is a way of teaching acceptance.”
December 10 – Shawn Rees’ art
The second Art at St. Martin’s event will be on December 10 and will feature the work of Grapevine artist Shawn Rees. Shawn has worked on canvas and on paper, in pencil, watercolor, and acrylic. You can currently see some samples of his art in St. Martin’s choir loft, parish hall, and hallways, and in at at least one local restaurant. Save the date!
